Lois Anne took this photograph at that magical moment when the sky turns blue and wraps up the earth. It is a Disneyesque creation meant to represent an old train station. But no trains ride the rails here. You can, however, hop on a sight-seeing tram that will take you through the Lake Sumter Landing area.

I have put many golf balls into the water between the ninth tee (to the right) and green on this beautiful golf course, which is the Pine Island Ridge Golf course in Davie, Florida. I took this photo a few years ago when we lived in Pine Island Ridge, not far from this site.

The people gather early some nights. But every night a free concert is held in the hometown squares of Spanish Springs and Lake Sumter Landing. Here folks are getting comfortable in Spanish Springs waiting for the music and dancing to begin.

This collection of gear stands at the entrance to a store in Lake Sumter Landing but I have no idea what they sell. It was closed when we went by and difficult to see into. It may be part of that huge furniture store.

Last week, we spent two nights in this condo overlooking the Gulf of Mexico and the channel to the back bay. It is very nice and we had a great time. The Old Fenimore Mill Condos are built on the site of the Old Fenimore Mill. Makes sense. You can read more about these condos here.
